[QUOTE="Lee Brenkman, post: 4304, member: 154"] Hey everyone, let me know if I'm boring you all when I get nostalgic like this. ‎40 years ago this date I worked my first show as an employee of the Great American Music Hall In San Francisco. Four different ownerships later I still work there, supervising and scheduling their sound staff and mixing the shows I really want to do or, in conscience, can't expect anyone else to deal with. Here, in no particular order are the names of the 40 performers that first came to my mind this morning as "memorable shows". Most but not all are "good" memories. Some of them are famous, some not so much but they all are part of the story.
